Moderator Response From Loen Bryce
Moderator

Posted on 02/25/2015 3:01:28 AM PST by lbryce

Dear Moderator, Okay. You really had no reason to explain why you pulled the two threads. It was your decision,and I have never questioned a moderator's decision. I ordinarily just let it be and move on. With all due respect your decision to delete the thread is what I believe had much less to do with the words being vulgar, it was misspelled on purpose to not to make it very obvious. I believe the reason you deleted it was because of a comment I made earlier on a previous thread. My track record for threads being pulled speaks for itself. i have only had about five threads pulled out of 2,500 threads posted since 2009.

But the thing if this. First of all I saved both posts,I have them on file and would be more than happy to share them with you. Both posts were identical except for my responses to them. The first response was indeed unacceptable for which I apologized profusely and agreed not to post for one week at least as a self-imposed moratorium realizing my transgression.

It was very late when I posted it and being very sleepy I mdse a egregious error in judgment.And your reaction was was within your right.

But thinking the post was imporant I reposted the very same article but this time I commented with the greatest respect and magnanimity. But still despite the apology and the diametrically opposite response in the nicest way possible yet, You still nevertheless, pulled that one as well which let me to believe i was not the matter of using a vulgar word to describe Muslims for pulling it the first time and then second time. I have both comments available with the appropriate date, time of posting to validate my point.

Another strange phenomenon was the total erasure of all my browsing history including the two identical articles I posted one with the vulgar response and the other with the total polite and courteous. All of which leads me to believe that an attempt to make me look bad by making claims of the second post which was no at all true and that you deltd the first post i responded to very kindly inm response o your criticism. As I said I do have both posts that are identical, the posts that I made first, the one being deleted due to the vulgar words made in reference to Mulsims and the second time the words rspoding in polite maner. If you'd like to see them i will be happy to forward them to you.

At this point I really don't want t continue discussing this issue ever again. I've learned many lessons here and have been very disappointed by the manner in which I have suported FR, emotionally, with overwhelming content and gepnerous financial support.

all My Very Best. Leon Bryce

Best thing to do is like the song says, “Let it be.”

OK I don't know anything about the underlying controversy, but I have been thrown out of a few online forums. One common denominator is that the people who own and operate the site have absolute control over it. Freedom of speech doesn't necessarily exist in online forums.

I hope you and the moderators can resolve your differences, but if not, you face the possibility of either accepting the mods’ decisions or you will have to go elsewhere.

It's a semi non-opus self-Zot but not really.

Looks like multiple re-blogging with excess spittle.

If you really have posed 2500 threads since 2009, why don’t you just accept that a small percentage might get pulled. Why go off on a rant like this and open yourself up to ridicule?

I’m gonna write this, but I’ll probably get in trouble. Doing it anyway. I’ve never noticed the mods on FR being consistent, or even reasonable most times.

Where are those other forums?? heehee, I may need to know.

I heard he was headed to the back gate of Area 51, after a stop in Rachel for chili at the Little Ale'in Inn.

"Is this an opus?"

Judging from the number of typos in the body of the post, along with the fact that he misspelled his own name in the title, I suspect something else ...

In all seriousness and with all due respect, this is a hopeless waste of valuable minutes of your life.

I have no problem with the moderators pulling anything. But nothing is ever learned because no reason is ever given.

A one line freepmail explaining why would go a long way.
